Auction begins with "I recently purchased this GTO from the original owner's Daughter -Owner passed and daughter needed to sell."

Friends, please educate your kids on what your stuff is worth...I'm guessing the current seller is making some coin on this flip. What a neat car - when's the last time a dual thin white/red stripe tire was made? That gives a pretty accurate depiction of how little this car has been driven.

----What a great GTO! I'm not a customer as I feel 65's should be 4-speeds, but the car is really neat. Not exactly a negative but his-and-hers Hurst shifters weren't available in 65, and I don't understand how it would work on a 2-speed auto that would have come on a 65. Maybe the trans has been up graded as well? It is a nice period change however. I suspect some substantial bids but the Tri-Power upgrade and 4-barrel combo will hold the bidding back a bit.

Seat belt delete got him a 11.00 credit. Cool car.

That's interesting...I didn't realize that seat belts could be deleted for credit once they were mandated for installation by the Government. That is indeed a nice, well maintained low mile car.

Wow what a well equipped car... metallic brakes, rear defog, power antenna, rear speaker... looks like everything EXCEPT tri-power and 4 spd.

IIRC, front seat lap belts became mandatory in 65, shoulder belts in 68, and head restraints (head rests) in 69. First new car my parents ever bought was a 65 Olds Dynamic 88 and it had front seat lap belts.

Our '65 GTO came with front belts, with the optional retractor.

Rear belts were not available.

Does the exterior and interior colors appear on the window sticker?

40K for a car that you can’t hear run or for that matter might need a rebuild. Been off the road since 79. Appears to me that the market for original cars hold their value .
